The Fugees Ready Or Not Lyrics

The Fugees - Ready Or Not

{Chorus by Lauryn Hill}
Ready or not, Here I come, You can't hide
Gonna find you, and take it slowly
Ready or not, Here I come, You can't hide
Gonna find you, and make you want me

[Wyclef Jean]
Now that I escape sleep walk awake
Those who can relate know the world ain't cake
Jails bars ain't golden gates
Those who fake they brake, when they meet they four hundred pound mate
If i could rule the world, everyone who have a gun
And together of course we'd giddy'up on their horse
I kick a rhyme drinking moon shine
I pour a sip on the concrete, for the deceased
But no don't weep, Wyclef in a state of sleep
Thinking about the robbery that I did last week
Money in the bag, banker like a drag
I wanna play with pelicans from here to Baghdad
Gun blast, think fast I think I'm hit
My girl pinch my lips to see if I still exist
I think not, I send a letter to my friends
A born again, hooligan only to be king again

{Chorus}

[Lauryn Hill]
Yo, I play my enemies like a game of chess
Where I rest no stress if you don't smoke cess, less
I must confess my destany's manifest
With some gortex and sweats I make tracks like I'm homeless
Rap orgies with Porgie and Bess
Capture your bounty like Elliot Ness YES!
Bless you if you represent the FU
But I hex you, with some witches brew if you do-do
Voodo, I could what you do, EASY!
Believe me, frontin' niggas
Give me heebe-geebees
So why you imitatin' Al Capone
I be Nina Simone and defacating on your microphone

{Chorus}

{Bridge - Lauryn Hill}
You can't run away from these styles I got
Oh baby, hey baby cause I got a lot oh yeah...
Anywhere you go, my whole crew gonna know
Oh baby, hey baby you can't hide from the vibe no no...

[Pras]
Ready or not, refugees taking over
The buffalo soldier, dread like rasta
On the twelfth hour flyby in my bomber
Crews went for cover now they under pushin' up flowers
Superfly, true lies do or dies
Toss me high only profile with my crew from Lacaille
I refugee from Guantanamo Bay,
Dance around the border like I'm Casius Clay

{Chorus}
